Abstract
Power and voltage generated by a wind turbine are more variable than that produced by conventional generators. Therefore, with the increasing penetration of wind energy into the grid, it is very important to simulate precisely the wind turbine/grid interaction to evaluate voltage fluctuation and other power quality aspects. In this paper, the wind turbine instantaneously generated power and voltage at the point of common connection (PCC) with grid are simulated by considering all the aerodynamical and mechanical effects, which could affect them. The inherent effect of the wind speed on the entire blade swept area is simulated in the model of the wind ...
